One of the Golden Isles, Porquerolles is the largest of the islands, covering 12.54 km2, and is the most westerly of them all. The other two islands, Port-Cros and Le Levant, are much more nature-oriented.   <\/p><p>On Port-Cros, in the heart of the national park, you&#8217;ll find plenty of walks and scuba diving. On Le Levant you&#8217;ll also find some great walks, although this island is half-naturist and half-military.   <\/p><p>Getting to the island of <strong>Porquerolles<\/strong> is easy: you&#8217;re just 3kms from the pier at the Tour Fondue. Here you&#8217;ll need your ticket for the shuttle boat crossing. Once you&#8217;ve arrived on the island, you&#8217;ll have the choice of walking or cycling along the footpaths, taking a dip in one of Europe&#8217;s most beautiful beaches, or strolling through the heart of the village.    <\/p><p>But that&#8217;s not all! Would you like to do some cultural sightseeing? There&#8217;s a wide range of things to do on the island.  <\/p><\/div><div class=\"columns__item\" style=\"align-self:center;\"><figure><picture><source srcset=\"https:\/\/acampa-vacances.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/ile-de-porquerolles-420x420.jpg.webp\" media=\"(max-width: 210px)\"><source srcset=\"https:\/\/acampa-vacances.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/ile-de-porquerolles-850x567.jpg.webp\" media=\"(max-width: 420px)\"><source srcset=\"https:\/\/acampa-vacances.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/ile-de-porquerolles-768x512.jpg.webp\" media=\"(max-width: 850px)\"><source srcset=\"https:\/\/acampa-vacances.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/ile-de-porquerolles.jpg.webp\" media=\"(max-width: 1024px)\"><source srcset=\"https:\/\/acampa-vacances.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/ile-de-porquerolles.jpg.webp\" media=\"(min-width: 1025px)\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/acampa-vacances.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/ile-de-porquerolles-420x420.jpg.webp\" width=\"420\" height=\"210\" loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"\" title=\"\"><\/picture><\/figure><\/div><\/div><h2><strong>The Carmignac Foundation<\/strong><\/h2><p>An architectural, artistic and cultural visit not to be missed. The foundation was created by Edouard Carmignac in 2000. Housed in a magnificent Provencal farmhouse, the foundation brings together 300 works by famous artists such as Andy Warhol, Gerhard Richter, Calder and Yves Klein, Ed Ruscha, Keith Haring and many others.  <\/p><p>The island is not an insignificant choice: &#8220;As in any myth or voyage of initiation, the crossing to the island is always a double movement, one physical, the other mental. It&#8217;s about crossing over to the other side. In the words of its Director, Charles Carmignac.<\/p><p>If you want to take time out, let go and admire artistic and architectural beauty, the Carmignac Foundation is the place to go.<\/p><h2><strong>Visit the wonders of Porquerolles Island<\/strong><\/h2><p>Would you like to do some cultural sightseeing? Discover the forts of <strong>Porquerolles<\/strong>. <\/p><p>Start with a visit to the legendary <strong>Porquerolles<\/strong> fort: named after a sea monster called the Alycastre. It is said to have once haunted the island. This fortress was built under the authority of Richelieu to prevent enemy landings, and in the 19th century was converted into a state prison.  <\/p><p>You can also visit Fort Sainte Agathe, also known as Ch\u00e2teau de <strong>Porquerolles<\/strong>, overlooking the village. As soon as you arrive on the island, you&#8217;ll spot the latter, dating back to the Roman Empire, nestling on the hillside in the distance. <\/p><p>Visit the sea fort on a small island off <strong>Porquerolles<\/strong>. You&#8217;ll see a cannon tower that controlled maritime traffic in the channel. Or take a look at the Pyramide Inca, also known as Fort du grand Langoustier.  <\/p><div class=\"columns\"><div class=\"columns__item\"><figure><picture><source srcset=\"https:\/\/acampa-vacances.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/divin-2-420x420.jpg.webp\" media=\"(max-width: 210px)\"><source srcset=\"https:\/\/acampa-vacances.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/divin-2.jpg.webp\" media=\"(max-width: 420px)\"><source srcset=\"https:\/\/acampa-vacances.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/divin-2.jpg.webp\" media=\"(max-width: 850px)\"><source srcset=\"https:\/\/acampa-vacances.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/divin-2.jpg.webp\" media=\"(max-width: 1024px)\"><source srcset=\"https:\/\/acampa-vacances.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/divin-2.jpg.webp\" media=\"(min-width: 1025px)\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/acampa-vacances.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/divin-2-420x420.jpg.webp\" width=\"420\" height=\"210\" loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"\" title=\"\"><\/picture><\/figure><\/div><div class=\"columns__item\" style=\"align-self:center;\"><h2><strong>Ideal for walking<\/strong><\/h2><p>To get the most out of your visit to <strong>Porquerolles<\/strong>, we recommend you take one of the island&#8217;s many hiking and biking trails, to discover the calanques, beaches and massifs.<\/p><p id=\"https:\/\/spinout.fr\/\">For bike rentals, you can either pick them up from <a href=\"https:\/\/spinout.fr\/\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/spinout.fr\/\" rel=\"noopener\">SpinOut<\/a>, our colleague at Camping International, or rent them directly on the island from la b\u00e9cane.
